The entrance through the Stamford breakwater is well marked, with the federal channel proceeding generally due north (at approximately 011 magnetic) from the middle of the sea wall. Observing range markers and lights should keep you in the channel. The Stamford Yacht Club mooring field is to the east of the main channel near Nun 10, with private markers leading to the Stamford Yacht Club dock. The mooring field and entrance must be navigated carefully, particularly at low tide. The dockmaster monitors channel 72 in season.

"I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving. We must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it. But we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor."
-Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
